LIVERPOOL’S POCKETS OF PARADISE

LIVERPOOL’S POCKETS OF PARADISE – A Local’s Perspective.

Often times we share our travel series, where we explore new destinations. In this episode, we’d like to share with you the exotic side of our adopted city. Our home for the last 20 years. The hidden treasures, Liverpool’s pockets of paradise right on our doorstep.

In the old days, Manchester was preferred to Liverpool by the powers that be. But with the EU, Liverpool’s fortunes turned….Even though we face BREXIT today.

Liverpool’s pockets of paradise are nestled on the Mersey River Banks estuary. A stretch of river developments with a dock and promenade here and there on the natural waters of the Mersey.

During the summer season, the backdrop turns exotic with tall boats and even mega cruise liners like the Two Queen Marys. And you can while away the day kayaking, paddle boarding or take the Mersey ferry across the river to Birkenhead and the Wirral.

At very low tides, you wouldn’t want to be paddle boarding though…

There is not an ice cream van on the Albert Dock promenade, unless there is a special summer show.

Talking of summer, have you planned yours yet? Then you can find your summer holiday savings here. ***

Back to the promenade, a short still to the Liver buildings to the events room and balcony and you have a po jet of paradise. A view bar none.

You may be mistaken at fist glance, to think the Liver buildings are a purely commercial and corporate office structure.

Stand on its balcony facing the promenade and docks and you get A view of the river that will take your breath away.

On an evening, when the moonlight glimmers an occasional ship, boat, ferry or fishing vessel 🚢 can be seen flickering in the distance.

If you like your tea with a dramatic view, the Tate Liverpool cafe perched on the Tate Art gallery is hard to beat.

TAKE A TRAIL

Enjoy the sights and sounds of wild life a short drive away to the Welsh walking trails. Head to the Castle and follow other ramblers ending with a quintessential English tea with scones in a Welsh cafe.

Or stick to the Mersey side to the best kept secret. Hilbre Island 🌴 where you will walk on the sea bed when the tide’s out, find history galore and seals abound. Be sure to head back to the mainland before the tide gets back in or you may have to call the coast guard to rescue you off the island. 😂

Of course not forgetting the majority of the Liverpool museums that are open and FREE All year round.

    The walking trails and the museums that offer free admission all year round are reasons enough to visit Liverpool when in the UK. Everytime I visit a new city/place, I tend to favor the less crowded places. It offers a better learning experience for me.

  19. A walk on the sea bed alone specially at sunset is a peaceful experience. I imagine my self walking barefooted on the sand and the wind caresses me..and then when I continue reading – “Be sure to head back to the mainland before the tide gets back in or you may have to call the coast guard to rescue you off the island. 😂” wtf.. hahahhaa… my dream shattered.. lolz.. my romantic imagination just turned horror.. ahahha
